MIT: Awe and Space

13th January 2017 (6.30pm)

January 9, 2017

Welcome to 2017! To bring on the new year Making in Transit presents an evening exploring the themes of Awe and Space on Friday the 13th of January 2017.

How do we respond to physical space emotionally? What is it about the relationship between our senses and our brains that can fill us with fear or wonder of a place? How is it possible for great works of architecture or immense open spaces to influence how we feel so strongly?

Explore the neuroscience of emotion and discover how interdisciplinary practice emerges in strange new spaces. Expect discussions about brains, feelings, outer-space and life in the Arctic Circle and on a tall ship.
